Al-Kafi 6635

Translation

Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Al Qasim Bin Yahya, from his grandfather Al Hassan Bin Rashid who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah^asws that the people are saying that the Forgiveness descends upon the one who Fasts the Month of Ramazan during the Night of Pre-determination. So he^asws said: ‘O Hassan! The worker, rather, is given his wages upon his being free (from completing his work) on the night of Eid’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you^asws! So what is befitting for us that we do therein?’ So he^asws said: ‘When the sun sets, so bathe. And, when you have Prayed the three (Cycles of) Al-Magrib, so raise your hands and say, ‘O the One with the Favours! O the One with the Extensiveness! O the One with the Benevolence! O the One Who Chose Muhammad^saww and Helped him^saww! Send Blessings upon Muhammad^saww and his^saww Progeny^asws, and Forgive me for every sin I have sinned which You^azwj Counted against me, and I have forgotten it, and it is with You^azwj in Your^azwj Book’, and fall down in prostration, and you should be saying, one hundred times, ‘I repent to Allah^azwj’, while you are in prostration, and you should ask your need’. And it is reported that Amir Al-Momineen^asws used to Pray two Cycles therein, reciting in the first, Al-Hamd (Chapter 1), and <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:112#h1"><a href="/books/quran:112#h1">[112:1]</a></a> Say: He Allah is One </span>(Chapter 112), one thousand times; and in the second Cycle, Al-Hamd (Chapter 1), and <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:112#h1"><a href="/books/quran:112#h1">[112:1]</a></a> Say: He Allah is One </span>(Chapter 112), once’.
